Our One Heart

A Little Pink Wedding Inspiration

A Little Pink Wedding Inspiration

There are only a couple more days in October, and since it is breast cancer awareness month and we’ve been seeing a sea of pink, I thought I’d share a few pink wedding ideas and inspirations.
Let’s start with the dress. If you want something a little different than the usual white or ivory, pink is a very elegant color for a bridal gown.
Here is a pink tablescape to give you a few ideas for your table decorations. I love the bright bold orange and fuchsia centerpiece. Covered chairs are a great way to add an extra splash of your wedding …read more

Choosing Your Wedding Flowers

I’ve always wondered how brides choose their wedding flowers. With hundreds of flower options to choose from and not to mention all the possible arrangements available, I think you’d be surprised yourself that one can settle on one thing to use for her wedding.

Following the usual way that brides narrow down their choices and how I made mine, of course, I’ll try to list down the main things considered as one makes her decision:

Favorite flowers
Color selection
Wedding dress design
Available flower arrangements
Florist style
Ornaments

These are listed in random. It will depend on how one will find each as important.

Floristry as Individual as You

One of the key details in a wedding is the bride’s bouquet. Most, if not all, brides pay extra attention to the set of flowers they’ll be holding as they walk down the aisle. It has to be special. It has to match the chosen theme but should have an added kick in elements. In short, it should be the best ever bouquet that a woman should carry in her wedding and, yes, for the rest of her life — a bouquet that will best reflect her person, her femininity, her.
So the idea that your florist can actually whip something …read more

Wedding Theme Idea: Cherry Blossoms

Wedding Theme Idea: Cherry Blossoms

It’s actually pretty interesting to observe how other countries put together weddings. One of the more interesting places would be my home country the Philippines. I noticed that the it’s quite common to opt to go for hotels as venue for the wedding receptions and to cater to this market, hotels actually offer out-of-the-ordinary wedding themes to help the bride and groom organize a memorable wedding celebration.
One example is the Cherry Blossoms theme available at the Diamond Hotel.
According to Wedding Fact Sheet, this particular wedding theme “portrays the soft side of Japanese pop art and natural elements. The effect is …read more

Wedding Favor Idea: Incense Gift Set

Green Tea Incense Gift Set is a wedding favor you might consider giving or if it’s too expensive for you, you might consider giving this to your bridal party.

If I’m the one given this, I’d appreciate it as I like the smell of incense. This is also perfect if you’re having a zen, oriental or asian wedding theme. Very appropriate!

Floral Centerpiece Idea for Casual Weddings

Floral Centerpiece Idea for Casual Weddings

Having a casual wedding? Why not have the above floral centerpiece for your reception tables???
Martha Stewart says
Out of the window comes an idea for centerpieces that are perfect for a casual wedding: flower-filled window boxes. Created from inexpensive items available at gardening or home-supply stores, the displays are easy enough to assemble yourself. Start with slender wooden boxes, and paint them to match your wedding palette. Fill them with pots of attractive, low-growing plants or flowers so the arrangements won’t impede conversation; we chose groups of sunny yellow daisies for ours.
